Elegant and earthy. Drinking perfectly now, and needed only a short time to completely open up. Start out with dark cherry flavors, and ends in earth and tar. Sangiovese, but quite different from Chianti and Brunello in style. An excellent if somewhat pricey $75 purchase. — 5 years ago
Wood, prune, blueberry nose. Nice thick sharp feel on tongue. Catching the Berry along with leather and wood. Would be fantastic with red meat. — 7 years ago
Enough matured. Complexity is more than concentration. Forest floor. Crognolo 12 @1400, Eva - Piccola, 250123-250125,90 — 3 months ago
Last ‘17 in cellar! In the heart of the Chianti lies Estate of Sette Ponti, 15 miles northwest of the city of Arezzo, past village of San Giustino Valdarno. Has 10% Merlot, aged in French Allier barriques, deep Ruby with red fruit aromas and floral notes. On the palate blackberry, plum and cherry flavors with blossom notes, spice and fine integrated tannins. Good balance, long finish ending with some oak and mineral tones. Nice! Will age a bit more! Tasting well now! — 3 years ago

#anotheroneescapes #frikkiescellar Thank you @sallyyost for sharing! An amazing @alleebleue Brut #rose 2014 #pinotage & #pinotnoir #MCC 🌹 Petals, strawberries & candy floss on the nose which carries through to the pallet followed by a mineral tone. Lovely crisp wine! Perfect for a hot #summersday #lovedit😍 #rosewine🍷 Worth ever drop of the #doublegold #michelangelo #5star #roserock #gold #franschhoek #southafricanwine — 7 years ago

2022 vintage. Durty dirty intro nose. Medium body. Grippy with little hedonism. Very businesslike. Should age effortlessly for a solid 20-spot. Woulda picked it up but surprisingly good in the Italian section in that price range. It's in the notes tho...do occasionally recall/pluck sin on sin a wine from time to time and commit. Could see this easily rolling into 9.5 territory within the next decade. 04.02.25. — 20 days ago
